      Prairie Quinoa

      Prairie Quinoa is a family-owned and operated business based in the city of Portage la Prairie, Manitoba. Our goal is to produce a quality Canadian-grown quinoa, while utilizing local resources, farmland and farmers. Our team includes:

He locates seed sources, arranges the variety trials, coordinates activities with Manitoba Agriculture, correspondence with CFIA and making Prairie Quinoa “work”.

      James Kuhl
